Whitby and North Yorkshire Moors Railway

Local departure by coach or Home Connect service, then on to the Royal Hotel, Whitby for four nights.

We head into the beautiful North York Moors and travel to pretty Goathland, instantly recognisable as Aidensfield from TV's Heartbeat. Here we take to the tracks of the North Yorkshire Moors Railway and enjoy a journey in the lovingly restored carriages, to Pickering.

We continue to visit the interesting Ryedale Folk Museum before taking the scenic route back over the moors as we return to Whitby.

Enjoy a day to relax in seaside Whitby. Climb the 199 Steps to the dramatic ruins of the abbey, enjoy some fish and chips at the Magpie Cafe or take a stroll around the shops along cobbled Church Street.

Alternatively, join our optional excursion to York, with its ancient walls, independent shops and quaint tea rooms. This magnificently historic city has so much to discover in the quaint Shambles that are overlooked by the glorious York Minster.

Enjoy a trip along the North York coast to reach popular Scarborough - beneath the resort’s prominent headland thrives a colourful fishing community and sophisticated holiday resort.

Two beaches, castle ruins and seaside amusements have attracted visitors to Scarborough since the Victorian age.
